Hi, Janie,

I hope this email finds you well. I don’t really know how couples share their wedding stories with you, but I decide to email you. I really feel so lucky to have had a photographer and videographer for our wedding in Detroit, Michigan and I want to share it with you. Both of them truly captured (捕捉) everything I felt and the beauty I saw on our wedding day. It was truly the best day of my life.

Our family and friends came from around the country to congratulate us. We had our wedding in Detroit because my husband was finishing medical school at the University of Michigan. We wanted to find a way to prevent our families from travelling too far within a short amount of time, so we decided to have everyone meet in the middle. His family is from California and my family is from Georgia.

We had an amazing year leading up to our wedding. He proposed (求婚) to me the day I graduated from the university of Maryland School of Law. We didn’t know how we could afford a wedding, but our families came through, especially my mom, who covered almost half of the cost. It was amazing. Well, I planned the whole thing and it turned out to be a wonderful dream. I want to share our journey and story with anyone who is interested, because I want every couple to know that they can have their dream wedding within a budget (预算).

Sincerely,

  Rhona

27、Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流) . Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment. However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way—by studying movements of random (随意的) floating garbage. A scientist with many years’ experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.

Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total — fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn’t. Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment. If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.

The Pacific Northwest is one of the world’s best areas for beachcombing (海滩搜寻) because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area. Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable information on 1, 600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.

As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean. He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand. They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.

【2】Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out _______.

A．what caused the shipping accident

B．when and where the shoes went missing

A．By collecting information from beachcombers.

B．By studying the shoes found by beachcomber.

C．By searching the web for ocean currents models.

【4】Ebbesmeyer is most famous for _______.

A．traveling widely the coastal cities of the world

B．making records for any lost objects on the sea

Some animals live in very terrible conditions. Hundreds of chickens stay in a cage, pigs have to live in spaces that are not big enough for them 【3】(turn) around in, and cows are kept in darkened places for the whole of their 【4】(natural) lives. Now more and more people are worried about the conditions of livestock(家畜)animals.
